Pixie Plans Pricing

Pixie is a CNCF sandbox open-source observability tool for Kubernetes contributed by New Relic. The project is licensed under Apache 2.0 and is free to use, whether self-hosted or via the hosted Pixie Cloud control plane (community.getcosmic.ai). There is no published paid Pixie SKU; commercial managed observability offerings that build on Pixie are sold separately by New Relic and other vendors as part of their own platforms. The Pixie project itself does not charge for API access.
